Chen Beixuan’s movements were slightly startling as she pinched her chopsticks and glanced sideways, “A box?”

The elder statesman Xu had already started to delegate authority to Xu Nanjing, teaching him personally by his side for the past six months.

He stayed in hotels for extended periods and seldom visited Shanhai Apartment, just a few times.

Chief Chen looked down and poured tea methodically, not appearing surprised in the least.

He clearly remembered the rare metal that almost caused Xu Nanjing an embarrassment, “Are you questioning my memory? I’ll take you to see it.”

He bowed his head to message Bai Lian.

It’s morning in China; it’s nine at night here, waiting for Shi Ruolan to bring coffee over. Seeing the message from Xu Nanjing, she reached out to reply.

Bai Lian’s reply was quick—

[You can take it, Zhang Shize and the others are in 303]

Not far away, Shi Ruolan approached Bai Lian, coffee bag in hand.

Several foreign youths made a face at Shi Ruolan before laughing and walking away.

Bai Lian narrowed her eyes, recognizing one of them as a male student who sat in the same lecture hall as her. Her expression cold, she grabbed her phone and went straight over.

“Hey—” Shi Ruolan noticed Bai Lian’s expression and hurriedly grabbed her sleeve, “Better not to invite trouble, we’re here to study.”

She shook her head at Bai Lian; as just two girls, Shi Ruolan was also afraid.

Bai Lian glanced at Shi Ruolan, withdrew her gaze, and took the coffee bag from her.

Shanhai Apartment.

In 303, Zhang Shize was doing his homework, Yang Lin was printing materials in the study, and Yan Lu was downstairs helping to move flower pots.

Zhang Shize had an early start for his senior year of high school, and he arrived early.

A year had passed, and Zhang Shize’s hair had grown out. He’d cut a layered hairstyle just before the year’s end. Upon opening the door and seeing the four people, he first greeted someone he knew well, “Uncle Chen, brother Xu.”

Lastly, his gaze fell on the two people beside Xu Nanjing.

The woman had black hair cut short, roughly chin length, casually tucked behind her ears, and was wearing a body-hugging outfit complete with a holster on her knee.

Next to her stood a mild-mannered man in a suit.

“Good little brother,” Xu Nanjing went to put an arm around Zhang Shize’s shoulders and side-stepped to introduce them, “This is Xijue, and this is sister Beixuan, do you recognize them?”

Xu Nanjing’s approach could be described as actively friendly.

This surprised both Chen Beixuan and Jiang Xijue, who also extended their friendliness toward Zhang Shize.

Xu Nanjing led them to the balcony.

It was still the same cardboard box, just as Xu Nanjing had left it last time. He lifted the seal and took out a piece of palladium, showing it to Chen Beixuan, “This is it, right? Alian said she gave it to me.”

Sunlight streamed through the glass, shining off the cold, silvery metal in Xu Nanjing’s hand.

The “Pa” on it was clearly visible.

Chen Beixuan took it for a glance, exchanging looks with Jiang Xijue.

Her eyes then fell on the box of palladium in the corner, slipping into thought.

Such a large box—was it about fifty pounds or more?

Xu Nanjing went upstairs to 403, with Chen Beixuan and Jiang Xijue following him.

They ascended only one flight of stairs.

At the top, they saw a middle-aged man descending.

Dressed in just a long T-shirt and a coat in the dead of winter, he had a rugged look but a warm smile on his face.

Upon seeing Xu Nanjing and the others, the man gave a slight smile.

Xu Nanjing was just pondering that this building probably wasn’t open for renting or selling anymore when he saw Zhang Shize open the door to 303, poking his head out, “Dad, hurry over, Yang Lin’s books are packed!”

“Coming, coming.” Zhang’s dad rolled up his sleeves.

Chen Beixuan observed Zhang’s dad’s retreating figure thoughtfully as she continued upstairs with Xu Nanjing.

“Are you sure that was Miss Bai’s classmate?” Once upstairs, Jiang Xijue questioned Zhang Shize, perplexed by Xu Nanjing’s behavior toward him.

Chen Beixuan was still holding a square piece of palladium, and upon hearing the question, she too turned to look at Zhang Shize.

Bai Lian was just a freshman; her classmates should also be first-years.

Xu Nanjing’s cordiality towards Zhang Shize was somewhat excessive.

Even if that was Bai Lian’s friend, he shouldn’t be so friendly.

That wasn’t just Bai Lian’s classmate—it was also Chi Yundai’s student, Chi Lu’s second generation.

Possibly to prevent the Chen Family and Jiang Xijue from jumping the gun and poaching him, Xu Nanjing smoothly deflected: “It’s nothing, the Professor Zhou you mentioned might have some connection with Alian.”

Chen Beixuan nodded and, after Xu Nanjing finished speaking, asked, “So where did this palladium come from? Did you ask?”

It’s not that she didn’t want to ask; it’s just that she and Jiang Xijue still hadn’t added Bai Lian as a contact.
